5 Things to Do This Weekend (Sept. 3-6)

Tuesday

Go on a picnic. It’s the perfect weekend to party, and whether you have a family picnic or a potluck with friends and loved ones, make sure you make the most of this three-day weekend.

Attend a public celebration. Will there be a parade in town this weekend? Fireworks? Public art shows? Check the newspaper for listings; your town is sure to have a full slate of happenings.

Get away from it all. Plan a day trip out of town as a last hurrah to the summer travel season.

Get ready for football. The NFL season kicks off this coming week, as does NCAA football. Make sure your fantasy teams are in good order (or hold a fantasy draft with your buddies), set up your man cave and get ready for some fun.

Thank your newspaper carrier. Saturday is Newspaper Carrier Day, so take a moment to thank your carrier if you can. They even work on holidays such as Labor Day to bring you the news!
